Feeling alone in a relationship

Exactly what the title says and I don't know what to do.
Me and dp have been together for 8 years and have a ds whos 4.
He works nights (sun-thur and I work part time) and we are like passing ships daily. He comes in and goes bed and I get up take ds school etc, dp wakes up I go work come home sort ds out and then dp goes to work.
But weekends where we could spend more time together we don't. Dp falls asleep and I'm left on my own watching television. We haven't had sex for years. Since ds has been born we have had sex 2 times in 4 years.
We never cuddle/kiss. I basically do everything around the house/bills/shopping.
Iv been looking at ds application for primary school and dp has had 0 input! I feel I do everything alone anyways
I just don't know what to do from here I feel stuck.

Ask him why he doesn’t spend time with you at the weekend

Your relationship sounds like it has been dead for several years now.

I’m not sure if it’s revivable at this stage tbh but ofc with a young son your going to want to. It’s only going to be revivable if you both want it.

Have a chat with him. Be open and honest about the issues in your relationship. See if he’s willing to put the work required in.
